No, only getpwnam_shadow. Currently libexec/xscreensaver/xscreensaver-auth
is installed setuid root; as things stand it doesn't seem to work properly
with setgid _shadow. (It would be nice to improve this as xscreensaver
seems much better at preventing keyboard input, i.e. passwords, from
reaching terminals than some of the other screen lockers).
